Re: I really hate .NET especially inside Delphi

You *cannot* "use" a namespace in Delphi.Net from a Delphi.Net compiled
assembly. Which is one of my points why I consider units in D.Net a poor
trade-off compared to namespaces in the usual way .Net languages implement
it.
You *have* to use units.

Thank you for explaining. My company is still in D7 and we did the intranet
in D8 (different namespace support than in D2005+). For .NET I use cheaper
and more pure .NET solutions than Delphi.

So I didn't know namespace support is even worse in Delphi. Probably to
avoid the confusion I was talking about.
